I'm late to the party as usual, but purchased my first LC this week. I chose the Le Pliage Cuir in the natural color in medium. I was psyched by all the gorgeous photos in this thread and really excited to try the brand. Well, I got it yesterday and frankly I'm a little disappointed. I knew the leather was going to be thin and soft, but my bag is a puddly mess.
I don't carry much in my bag, so it hangs with the saddest look. I'm sure the packing "wrinkles" will smooth out eventually, but will I ever really bond with this bag? Did anyone else feel a little let down when you got your first Cuir?
I wonder if a base shaper or organizer will help, but I don't want to add weight to the bag. One big plus for me is the light weight. Oh, and I'm a shortie so the shoulder strap that can't be adjusted is another annoyance. I wonder if this bag is just not meant for me.
